地點狀語從句

例如：

Where there is a will, there is a way. 有志者，事竟成。

They will go where they are happy. 他們想到他們覺得快樂的地方去。

(1)地點狀語從句由where，wherever，引導，

如：We must camp where we can get water.

我們必須在能找到水的地方露營。

(2)地點狀語從句與定語從句的區別 :

在於分句在句中作什麼成分。作狀語，則是狀語從句；作定語修飾名詞，則是定語從句

where引導定語從句時，從句前應有一個表示地點的名詞作先行詞；而狀語從句前則無需先行詞。

如：

Go back where you came from.(where引導地點狀語從句）

你從何處來到何處去。

Go back to the village where you came.(where引導定語從句，修飾village)

回到你來的那個村子里去。

判斷：

①We went home, where we had dinner.此句是where引導的"非限制性"定語從句，這裡"where"= at home(先行詞是home)從句還原" we had dinner at home"全句譯：我們回到家，在家裡吃了頓飯.

②I walk into the canteen where students are eating此句也是where 引導的定語從句，與上句不同之處在於此句是一個"限制性"定語從句。全句譯：我走進了這個同學們都在吃飯的食堂。（限定說明了是一個什麼樣的食堂)

③地點狀語從句與定語從句其本身屬性就不同：地點狀語從句相當於大的副詞；定語從句相當於大的形容詞，副詞是用來修飾動詞的,

例： you can go where you want to go . 你可以去你想去的地方。

（3）地點從句一般位於主句之後，但為了強調，也可以放在句首。

With a car，a person can go where he pleases and when he pleases.

有了汽車，人可以想去哪兒就去哪兒，想什麼時候去就什麼時候去。

And where there is shale there is likely to be oil.

哪兒有頁岩，哪兒就可能有石油。
